Influence of anodic oxide coatings on screwing behaviour and susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking of self-tapping aluminium screws

• Enhanced use of lightweight materials, namely aluminium and magnesium, requires the application of appropriate production techniques. Self-tapping screws represent an innovative joining technology. High-strength aluminium alloys can be used as screw material. Stringent requirements regarding the wear resistance of screw surfaces result from the thread-forming process. These requirements are met by oxide ceramic conversion layers produced by hard anodizing. Based on application-oriented testing methods, the influence of hard anodized layers on the screwing behaviour and susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking of high-strength aluminium screws is examined.
